This game is loads of fun for any third-person shooter fan. I have personally has so much enjoyment out of this game that I find myself playing it over and over again. The game is a bit short I think they could've put in a few more levels but, trust me when I tell you that you won't get tired of it. In any language; this game RULES!!!

A great online game.

This game is awsome. The graphics are not amazing, but real gamers dont care how good graphics are. Unfortunatly, the game loses some fun in single play, but it is still a lot of fun to play. The online play mode is what makes this game so great. If you are a fan of Resident Evil, you MUST buy this game. If you are not a fan of Resident Evil, you will love this game anyway. A must buy.

Resident Evil Outbreak really surprised me. I always knew it would be a really good game but I never thought it would be as addictive as a some of the best online console games. It has turned out to be one of my favorite online games and I will be playing it for awhile, probably until the sequel comes out.

I suggest you at least try it and give it a chance if you're not going to buy it.

Good game

I'm a huge fan of RE. I have just about all of them. I like this game, its good, and yes it has its flaw(s), all games have them... I like the game as a whole but I hate the loading screens! And I was kinda happy to hear thet they got rid of the door animations until I saw what they replaced it with!

one of the best RE game ever

I got this game on 4/3/04 and beat all levels on 4/8/04 and this game is very hard and i played it online and it is cool people around the world help you go beat all the levels what is not cool is when i play the last level people haven't got that far in the game so i had to do everything by myself so it was very hard and i had to get the T-blood P-sealed and the V-posion all by myself and kill the tyrant with only two people and the other two died.

If you want me on your team for online my name is philgoku

A terrible game

Man, I'm glad I rented instead of buying. This game is unbelievably bad. The reasons are way too many to list. I just wanted to contribute some bad feedback to a game that truly does not deserve to be called Resident Evil. If you thought the movie was great, you're probably mindless enough to like this game. If not, stay away.

DONT BUY GAME!!!

If you are like me, you might hold a slight level of skeptism when you hear that a famous video game franchise is going to turn the tables by going online. So I held my breath and wondered, when I read up on previews I was pretty impressed with the way it sounded on paper. The thought of a survival horror game with multiple players struggling for survival against ghastly monsters just was so tempting and really alluring. But when you get down to it, when Capcom finally conceived the game and just the simple tidbit that creator Shinji Mikami was going to have no input at all. The game pretty much shows itself as a turn into the wrong direction, terrible programming tactics and horrid implemenation the concepts drawn out.

Online diagnosis

I haven't played a whole lot online, actually my online time clocked in at about three hours. So maybe, just maybe my critique isn't going to be 100% fool-proof. But I'm sure I can at least give a proper judgement call on what I EXPERIENCED online. For one, we all know Sony has no head-set where online communication is posssible at all. Bummer really because this makes me favor Xbox Live all the more. So without having a formal way of communicating there essentially becomes 4 players on the screen who may or may not know what to do. It's really frustrating to have your teammates leave you when you needed some assistance or for them to go on ahead and there is no method to tell your team members.

Offline diagnosis

Ok, so we got the single-player mode for anyone who lacks a friend or two. Or maybe you're just unsure rather the online experience of Sony is really worth the time and day. Well as for as playing alone goes -- it is beneficial. The scenarios you unlock here which total to five can only be played online when you have completed them. Problem is, the A.I. is just as bad if not worse then when you are teamed up with your online counter-parts. If you need a character to hold a key for you which by the way could be VERY crucial later on; it's saddening to see them drop it and replace it with it a pipe. And there is a set of commands much like Freedom Fighters and Rainbow Six. They are limited though, to worsen it there is a lack of a graphical display where you can select the appropriate commands. So it all falls on the analog stick and how you move it -- to me it felt they were more random then set. So I wanted my fellow comrades to follow me up the ladder, instead they go off and fight the zombies taking one for the team. Speaking of which, offline character interaction is relevant. The moods of your team depend solely on how you interact with them, the more you assist them in need they'll return the favor and save you when you need it. Their behaviors vary so it might take longer to befriend some characters more than others.

Dated control scheme

What in the world went on in the minds of Capcom, didn't they know better then to configure the controls much like the past Resident Evils' and I mean really the PAST ones. Moving the characters around still feels like you are attempting to move the hand of a Grandfather Clock. The game itself is 3D but in a pseudo kind of fashion, so in actuality you're playing this game more like it is set on pre-rendered backgrounds. And worse yet what bogs both variations of the game down is the loading. Really I haven't see these kinds of loading times since the dawn of the 32-bit era. Take into consideration if you must back track which is much of a integral component of Resident Evil as the zombies are and you can pretty much spell out N-O-T F-U-N. It hurts the scare factor too, really if you are being hunted down by a hunter at dead way, than you must pursue into the next room for cover, too see the ugly load screens pop-up diminishes the fear level.

I wouldn't totally dismiss this title

When it comes right down to it, RE Outbreak could have been the best thing to hit the video game biz since slice cheese or...maybe Legend of Zelda rings a better tune. But the overall results are certainly sub-par, long loading times, exceedingly bad artificial intelligence both with actual humans and computerized entities. Toss in a ridiculous save system that only allows one save slot and is temporary. All these wrongs, where is the light at the end of the tunnel ? Well, for starters the visuals are nicely done, they pretty much show off the PS2's hardware. Nice character models, detailed shots of Raccoon City and sweet animation are all abound. There also is some neat ideas, like if you cannot face off against the hordes of demons due to a lack of weaponary you can exchange it all for setting up some shelter. Take for example, knocking down a fence and tightening it with staples thanks to a special tool. There are some really bright ideas a mist, sadly the game developers didn't pull the punches enough on their debugging and quality control staff. Simply put it, if you love Resident Evil that much, invest in the add-on Hard drive and don't mind silent companions to venture with online. By all means, I suggest it but other than that if you share the same feelings as I, a rental is otherwise considered. It will save you a lot of money, believe me.

GREAT GAME BUT SOME BIG ERRORS

This game is great. its resident evil, but in a way sort of like mini games. you play scenarios for example., excape from a bar alive, or get throught a hotel alive. But of course having the zombies and famous enemies.The only thing i hate about capcom when they made this game, is that they made it for ps2. The loading time when you go through a door is about 10-15 seconds per door. The graphics are not that great, and of course with ps2's online, it has many problems. Raandom disconects,lag ect. Thats why im made becuase they should have made it for xbox and xbox live to make the graphics better and make the load times ALOT better. The online would be better also. But its a fun game and would recomend it to anyone.

resident evil (no way on online pay)
